The new raid tier is awesome!

hard disagree, the music is childish and grating from m2/m4, the snapshots are worse than ever. the theme is repulsive in m2. i like the idea of the battle arena with the crowd and the commentary etc is all a neat idea, but the visual aesthetic for it all is way too extra and again, childish. and being forced to do it, or be weak and die to every other aoe is a bit of a slap in the face

The snapshots are identical to anything else in the game. I treat them just like how I treat them in savage/ultimate and have 0 issues. The hearts in the second fight are actually better feeling than the little guys in one of the recent expert dungeon that grab you. I was actually able to easily weave in and out of them without getting hit because their hitboxes feel much smaller.

How are snapshots "worse"?
I am of the opposite opinion actually, I think it's good we have a bit of punishment for standing in AoE's, you're not supposed to sleepy on the raids, even if they're normal ones.

Not fan of the armor, the music is kinda alright other than that, the bosses were cool as hell

I haven't done the fights yet but this is one of the few 8 man raid sets I actually want for glam.

The fights are ok actually designed well you can learn the fights by doing them blind and instantly know what to do. The storyline was kind of like what if the WoL joined the WWE. Seems like there is no high stakes. But this is the vacation expansion after all.

The first fight felt a little undertuned if anything but that's probably a good thing for the first raid fight of the expansion. Mechanics very intuitive (assuming someone isn't completely new to the game using a boosted character), damage taken for failure forgiving.

The second fight will feel better when players have had a chance to gear up a little and are more used to the mechanics. The fourth fight felt like it got normal difficulty spot on.

The third fight is a mess. That felt more midcore than normal. I think it's going to destroy interest in continuing the raid series for a lot of players that usually would do normal at least for the story.

The aesthetic is not my thing. Most of the music is not my thing.

The story is definitely not my thing and it's left me debating if I want to bother with the rest of the raid when it gets released later in the expansion.

Really? I thought that was the easiest out of all of them by far. You just dodge his half room cleaves and stand on bombs with longer fuses. That's pretty much it.

The third was definitely the easiest.
